Also, with most AWS products you are charged by the hour. So most of the fees should stops the moment you delete/shutdown/ the resource. For example, if you attach an extra block device (extra virtual drive) to one of your instances, and later shutdown your instance. You could be charged for...

If you don't need all the fancy stuff, and want a predictable fee each month, use LightSail. LightSail is AWS answer to cheap vpss' like Digital Ocean or Linode. You can get one instance free (750 hours) for one month.

I think it will go to 20-25k by Januray of next year. After that, I think most US banks will ban any transactions related to crypto, and the US government will try to completely ban it.

Interesting, I don't remember hearing about the empress tree before.

Ha ha, he went full chapo-mode!

Sometimes, if there is a large supply of "skilled people" in your field, or you are in a country/state/city with low demand for your skills you are screwed. Sometimes it is life circumstances, luck, networking, nepotism, the place you live etc., that determines your financial success.

I had almost like 30 at one time. Now I have less than half of that. Some I lost because I didn't have auto-renew on. Others in my opinion were crap and I just let them expire.
